World famous, GUINNESS® beer (dry stout) is brewed in almost 50 countries and enjoyed in 150. It originated at Arthur Guinness' brewery in Dublin, Ireland (St. James Gate) and stems from the porter style that originated in London in the early 18th century. The unique and very distinctive flavor of GUINNESS comes from the unfermented roasted barley.
